From this time we hear no more of the aboriginal proprietors of " Harahamis," or Asoquatah. Many interesting relics of the Indian race have been found near the vicinity of Lake Peppeneghek or Cross Pond; proving most conclusively that this portion of " Harahamis" was one of their favorite camping and hunting grounds. Near the east side of the lake, upon the land of the late Henry Keeler, there once existed a large mound of stones, raised by the Indians over the remains of one of their renowned sachems. Upon one of the highest points of the West Mountain, bordering on Candatowa or Ridgefield, in the north-east corner of the farm of Jeremiah Wood has been recently discovered ^ curious Indian " shingaba-wassin " or " Tonage stone." It consists of a hard stone fretted by the action of water into a shape resembling the trunk of a human body well rounded, with something resembling legs, with back and chest well denned, surmounted by an entablature, upon which there once doubtless stood a rude head. The trunk is about twenty-two inches high and twelve broad. There can be no doubt, as we have just observed, that it was formed by the sheer force of attrition -- such as is ordinarily given by the upheaving and rolling force of waves on a lake or ocean beach.
